Concerns exist regarding an increased risk of stroke and thrombotic events early after discontinuation of rivaroxaban. Methods: In ROCKET AF (N=14,264), we evaluated patients who had a temporary discontinuation, early permanent study drug discontinuation, and all patients who completed the trial and transitioned to open-label therapy for stroke and non-CNS embolism and other thrombotic events including MI and death up to 30 days post-discontinuation. Results: Stroke and non-CNS embolism occurred at similar rates after temporary discontinuations (9 with rivaroxaban, 8 with warfarin [6.20 vs. 5.05 per 100 pt-years; HR 1.28; 95% CI 0.49-3.31; P=0.62]), and after early permanent discontinuation (42 with rivaroxaban, 36 with warfarin [25.60 vs. 23.28 per 100 pt-years; HR 1.10; 95% CI 0.71-1.72; P=0.66]). Significantly more strokes occurred in rivaroxaban (N=22) compared to warfarin-treated patients (N=6) after the blinded end of study transition to open-label warfarin (6.42 vs. 1.73 per 100 pt-years; HR 3.72; 95% CI, 1.51-9.16; P<0.0044) which lead to an increase for all patients discontinuing or transitioning to open-label warfarin (HR 1.50; 95% CI 1.05-2.15; P=0.003). All thrombotic events (stroke, embolism, MI, and death) were similar after all discontinuations and end of study transition (HR 1.08; 95% CI 0.89-1.32; P=0.44) (Table). Conclusion: In moderate to high-risk AF patients temporarily or permanently discontinuing anticoagulation, the risk or stroke or systemic embolism is high and similar when treated with rivaroxaban or warfarin. After end of study transition to warfarin, an increased risk of stroke and systemic embolism was observed for patients being treated with rivaroxaban compared with warfarin, underscoring the importance of anticoagulation coverage during the transition to a therapeutic INR.M.

Lee, Michael Smith, Pratima Dulloor, Johns Hopkins Hosp, Baltimore, MD; Bradley S. Marino, James Spaeth, Cincinnati Children's Hosp Medical Ctr, Cincinnati, OH; Allen D. Everett, Johns Hopkins Hosp, Baltimore, MDBackground: Neurologic injury occurs in 30-70% of pediatric patients undergoing repair of congenital heart disease (CHD) and we have no means to acutely determine brain ischemia or injury. We developed a method of vascular reactivity monitoring using near-infrared spectroscopy called the hemoglobin volume index (HVx), which can detect the lower limit of pressure autoregulation (LLA). Time and absolute arterial blood pressure (ABP) below the LLA places the brain at risk for ischemia. To couple real-time physiologic brain monitoring with evidence of acute brain injury, we have developed a high sensitivity assay for the brain specific protein, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) as an indicator of end organ injury. We hypothesize that elevated HVx and time spent below the LLA during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) will identify ischemic periods detectable by serum GFAP elevation. Methods: A multi-center observational pilot study of children undergoing CPB was used to determine if HVx and GFAP monitoring could be performed during CPB. Intra-operative HVx was monitored and waste blood samples collected for GFAP measurement. HVx and GFAP data were analyzed by CPB phases. LLA was defined from HVx plotted across ABP for each subject. Results: LLA was identified in 85% (52/61) of subjects. Both the HVx and GFAP demonstrated significant perturbations during CPB, with peaks during re-warming (p<0.002, Figure). There was a trend towards increased GFAP with increased time below LLA (p=0.06). No clinical strokes were found. Conclusions: Dynamic HVx monitoring detected periods of impaired reactivity that were temporally related to elevations in GFAP. Further studies coupling HVx monitoring and neurobiomarkers with neurologic outcomes would set the stage for an interventional trial to optimize ABP management for brain protection during CPB.Download figureDownload PowerPointR.B.
